And after this year, you can t indulge m this amusemetit nt all. Il is the result of a campaign ot a hundred years to cut down Independence Day accidents. A Michigan congressman refused to attend the reception for the king and queen ot England because that nation owes us live ami a half blllltm dollars. He probably thought his telegram would make the king dig up (he small change and settle the bill but so tar there • la no report of that happening. The best way to avoid iucou vetilence that we know of la to obey the laws. Those who think they can get by will sooner or iatei , bump into »n officer and then he has no defense. See that your car , ia right and then obey the traffic regulations. Officers do not want to make arrests but It's their duty and tor the general good ot society, the statutes and the crdiaa&cea must be enforced.

Prof, Goodwin of Armour Insti-! tute has perfected a liquified hilum-I Inoue coal that operates his aulo-| mobile on half the price of game I line. He thinks he has something and has been demonstrating tn' Chicago traffic this week bnt exports smile.
